ADHD

My boyfriend (44m) was finally diagnosed with ADHD after decades of being in need of medication, and steadily declining mental health. A psychologist diagnosed him, but he can't prescribe the necessary stimulants.

A couple years ago, after he realized he was drinking way too much to cope daily, my bf got a prescription for medical marijuana in TX to help with his PTSD. He has been taking that steadily since then. It's the only thing that helps him feel relaxed, and he would take it every day after work, and on weekends.

The only other doctor he's seen in years (primary care) basically told him that if he prescribed a stimulant, he would require a drug test, and if there was any THC in the drug test, he was "legally required" to stop prescribing any stimulants.

1. That's a lie, and we're damned angry about it. It is entirely up to the doctor's discretion to drug test, and which drugs actually would be a problem. We don't want to go back to a dr that lies to us.

2. He's tried stopping the THC before, and only lasted a few days. The inability to ever feel relaxed is just suffering, plain and simple. Without it he's a constant panicky mess, forgets to eat, can't get comfortable just sitting down, and can't calm down, ever. He gets maybe 3 hours of sleep a night.

3. I'm sure eventually, once he's on the proper stimulant dose he needs, he'll feel much less need for the THC, if at all. But how is he supposed to stop before he gets the right prescription? Especially since he was taking so much daily that it might take months to leave his system?

My question to you all is: do you have or know of a psychiatrist / family care doctor who can prescribe stimulants who practices in Texas, that either won't drug test or will actually understand about ADHD sufferers and THC usage and won't hold it against him getting the right medication?

I'm watching him mentally and emotionally deteriorate every day since he stopped taking the THC. It's only been a little more than a week, and it's getting worse and worse. I'm worried he won't make it the four months he thinks he needs to get it out of his system completely.

Thanks for reading and thanks for caring. If you have a specific name for me, please send me a DM. I know our country's healthcare is a shit show, but I'm trying to do whatever I can for him.
